HopeStory Virtual Summit is HERE! (Feb. 18-20)

Y’all, I’m soooo excited that I HAD to share!

If you’ve felt stuck…
If you’ve questioned your voice…
If you’ve wondered whether your story really matters…

This summit was created with you in mind.

Midlife Reset – Sharing the Love

Helping women 40+ lose weight and regain their health and strength so they can feel good in their body again

At first, I was only gonna share this with my email list. Then I realized how many people could use this valuable resource (especially if you’re like me and are still staring at some post-holiday pounds 👀). So I’m sharing the love – cuz after all, it’s February! 💞

I recently connected with ​Cindy Dobroskay​, a health and weight loss coach in British Columbia, Canada who works specifically with women in midlife. What I appreciated right away is that her approach isn’t about pressure, perfection, or starting over yet again (cuz ain’t nobody got time for THAT!😂)…it’s about understanding what your body actually needs at this stage of life.

She’s running a ​FREE 5-day Midlife Reset Challenge​, designed for women who:

  • feel confused about what works anymore
  • want to feel stronger and more energized
  • and are tired of extreme or all-or-nothing approaches

Midlife Reset

This is not your typical challenge. This is not about doing more…(sounds good to ME!)

It’s about understanding what your body needs now – so you can stop guessing and start feeling better.

Each day includes a short, practical video focused on nutrition, movement, and mindset: grounded in science and real life. (Cindy shares her own experiences AND she went back to school later in life for a master’s degree in Exercise Sciences – I’m impressed). It’s happening inside a private Facebook Group for Women.

If this sounds supportive to you, you can learn more and sign up here: 👉 ​http://subscribepage.io/5daymidlifereset​

(And if this is something I end up doing myself, I’ll be sure to share how it goes.)

As I embrace life at 50 (whoo hoo – I’m lovin’ it…and support is always welcome!), I hope this feels like a helpful resource for anyone who needs it.

Cuz we can ALL use a RESET every now and then!

Abundant blessings for a wonderful weekend, Kayren 🙂

p.s. Sign up TODAY for the ​free 5-day Midlife Reset Challenge​ – Cindy’s starting on Monday, February 9, 2026…don’t miss it if this is what you’ve been needing!

[author journey] Writing With God

I’m accepting His invitation – how about you?

I have a new perspective after returning from this year’s (ahhh-mazing!) HopeStory Writer’s Conference.

I follow the lead of THE Author and Finisher. 👣

Not attempting to rewrite His plan.✒️

Not trying to figure stuff out on my own.

Not competing or grabbing the wheel. Cuz how can I possibly outdo the Creator of ALL Things? Truly an exercise in futility!

Nothing to prove.

Just sincere admiration and emulation. Allowing myself to embody His character as He imprints Himself on every facet of my life. Even the areas I’d temporarily barred entry to (or tried to). #authorjourney

Because writing with God is part of walking with God…🙏🏽

Blessings, Kayren

p.s. I’ve already registered for next year’s HopeStory Conference. Yes, it WAS that impactful (speakers, workshops, networking, hugs, writing peeps – the whole nine yards🎉)! I’m inviting you to join me in 2027…http://www.hopewriters.com/a/2147984805/artHGzhs 

“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
